Stunt Capture:  Is the XSENS mocap system rugged enough?


We often get questions about stunt capture. During stunt capture, the actor (or actors) perform intense and highly dynamic movements, and most of the time they need protection such as mats or harnesses. This can be hard on the actor, but also on the mocap gear, will it hold?

Our answer is simple: It will probably break the actor first before it breaks the Xsens system.


Stunt Capture

Many of our clients do very radical stunts. Think about fighting, jumping, rolling, bumping, crashing, and other dangerous stunts that are very demanding for the actor(s) and the gear they are wearing. When they wear an Xsens mocap suit, there are 17 sensors, a body pack, and a battery embedded in the suit, and you don't want them to break.


Secondly, you want the sensors to stay fixed in the designated location on the body for the best quality data. If you did a correct calibration, this calibration file will help you to HD Reprocess all the data.


The Xsens mocap system can take a hit, you don't have to hold back when you do stunts. Here are some numbers to illustrate how rugged the system is:


●The sensor housing has special tubes built in to resist a force of 100kg

●The components can handle a shock of 10,000g

●The cabling is partly made of Kevlar so it can resist a strain of 50kg

●Although you cannot go swimming, you can use the system in the rain
